In reply 10 your inquiry IS 10 my views
Of the effect the agitation CT the prohibit
tioa question will have en- the Democratic
party, l beg to state: That IN view of
the tact that prohibition was beaten by &
majority OF about 80, COO votes, and that
many good Democrats throughout the
state vigorously worked ana voted for it's
adoption, believing it TO be nCn-D -rtisan,
VINO otherwise would have voted against
it, its decent burial with & monument
80, 900 votes high, should be the only re-
miuGer Of its existence. It's agitation
would only serve TO keep up the bitter
ness OF the contest which Was settled at
me polls SO tar as making it COnslitu-
Lional amendment is concerned, and in
my judgment TO no aOCd 10 the Demo
cratic party, unless the tiSGt Is continued
by the Prohibitl0EistS, N which case
believe it 70 be the duty OF all true Dem
ocrsts TO fight then from the shoulder
and give them 10 qusrter5 whatever. It
is evident that Mr.. Carroll, D0h0rCy end
CrGnfill, all Of whom are known enemies
to Democracy, will endeavOr 10 draw the
Democrats, who voted for prohibition on
the tn Of August, off into the National
Prohibition party, out when it is under
taken all Democrats who voted for pro-
hioition believing it to be nOn-pOlitical,
will vote the straight Democratic
ticket. i is true that some weak kneed
Democrats who are over enthusiastic will
drop out, but the Democratic party can
very we'll spare ell such. l do not De
lieve the Democratic party has the right
or will presume to challenge man's
vote in the late cOltes, SIS party test in
| the primaries at the state Democratic
convention next year, provided he has
! been true to the Democracy at all other
times. Il is my opinion that the state
Democratic convention should settle the
question with reference TO sumptuarJ
laws and put plank in its platform Or
tue subject in keeping with the plank il
national plsform aud make it so plair
that no Democrat, though he be fool
can misunderstood or miscOnstTu'
it. While state prohibition il

ENFORCE THE LAW.

TIE GAZETTE favors the enforcement
of oil laws. II laws be wise and needtul,
their enforcement is matter OF public
demand; il laws be unwise and hurtiul,
their enforcement will work speedier re-
peal or amendment. The argument that
the enforcement of any law drives men to
other communities is no more or less
than plea for lawlessness and license.
II the violation OF one law "makes bust
ness" why not violate alI law and hsve q
hurrah time of it generally. If there are
people who are attracted by violation Of
Law, there are many more
people who are attracted
by enforcement OF lsw. The Sunday law
as it stands on the statute book should
De enforced until repealed or smended
but its enforcement should be upon fair
and not upon strained construction Of it.
The intent Of the Sunday law, so far
as Intoxicating liquors are concerned,
was to protect society from the evils of
that traffic, as on election day; and this
should not be lost sight of by those who
are discussing the enforcement OF
the law. Soda water is one
thing and whisky another; the law
recognizes the difference on election
dsys, and those who are enforcing the
law should not strengthen the selfish
demand to sell whisky in violation Of the
lsw by strained construction of tne law.
It should De borne in mind by honest up.
holders of law that there is slwsys q
class of men who seek to make Sunday
laws odious by harsh construction and
enforcement of them; and these sre the
men who refuse to recogniz. the differ.
cree made by the law between whisky
and ice cream.

To the Editor of the Gazette:
II reply to your inquiries 1 shall en-

The affirmative of the proposition to
engreft prohibition In the organic law in
vited sll the voters Of Texas, without re-
gard to party aignments, party fealty, re-
ligiOus Creeds, temperance organizations,
race, color or previous condition, to the
arena OF combat. The single isolated

| bustiDgS and determination by the ballot
1t was not presented as Democratic,

/ but as remedial expert
ment affecting all alike. 1t was
non partizsn in submission, partisan

the methods, policies and purposes OF

as from either of the two leading parties
of the country. It WAS movement Of
| the people to abolish the liquor traffic,
! or, in other and palmer language, to COL
demn and wipe out the saloon system.
| Toe battle was waged and fought on

the negative Of the proposition urques-

pie of Texas were not prepared for the

were overwhelmingly opposed TO consti-

In View OF the Tremendous Prohibition
Defeat, Is it Not Best for the
Whole Agitation to Cease9
Would 1t Not BE Better to Regard the
Whole Question Sottled?-What
tbs Texas Editors Say
AUSTIN STATESMAN

The Fort Worth GAZETTE wants the
opinions Of the editors Of the Texas press
upon two questions. First, in view OF
the tremendous prohibition defeat, is it
not best for the whole agitation to cease,
and vote IN the late canvass to have no
test importance next yesr? Second,
would it not be better to regard the
whole question as settled, and for the
Democratic party to turn to working
out its great mission; As TO the first
question, the Stateman's answer
Is uGQusliAediy yes! let the agi-
taticn cease completely and for all time
And with this question put 10 rest for
ever the vote il the last election snCud
have no deciding weight or significance
in future party contests, IS in the annilI-
lGtion Of t4e question, the only excuse
for the desert;on CT prohiDi;ionists from
Jha party is taken Wy, sud they nat

The relation between the Pros and

maintain that prohibition is uRdemocratic,

Cept upon satisfactory pledges that they
renounce the prohibition "heresy" and

Gratis, en- the other hand, accept their de-
feat gracefully, and in consideration
of the overwhelming majority against

that the question of prohibition in Texas

least, II not permanently: aud they ad-
wise, therefore, that the democratic"
prohibition organization of Texas, at the
ensuing meeting at Waco, be dissolved.
! They further claim that prohibition being

standing in the party is not affected by

power and authority Of the ants to read
any prohibition Democrat out Of the
